Hi everyone! My name is Courtney Anderson and I am currently a second grade teacher. I have taught second grade for the past three years and high school learning support for an additional three years. When I am not teaching, I enjoy making crafts, reading, spending time with my family and watching dirt track racing. I only have two courses left to finish my masters. When this course is completed, I will be officially done with my studies.
Grade Level/Discipline: Second Grade - All core content areas.

Few Facts about myself:

  1. Fact 1: I taught high school learning support grades 9-12 before switching to my current placement as a second grade teacher.
  2. Fact 2: I have two wonderful children. A son named Dakota who is 4 years old and a daughter named Sienna who is 2 years old.
  3. Fact 3: I have two Jack Russell dogs at my house.
  4. Fact 4: Over the summer, my husband and I took our kids to Florida to see Mickey Mouse.


What I'd like to learn or get out of this course:
I would like to learn how to incorporate net-generation tools into my everyday curriculum, in order to, keep my students actively participating and motivated in my learning environment. Also, I would like to be able to eventually teach an online graduate course and I feel that this course will allow me to understand how to bridge the gap between the generations of learners that may be taking one of my online courses.

My favorite game(s):
  • Corn hole
  • Table top corn hole
  • Checkers
  • Hide and Seek (whatever my kids want to play)
